CLEANING YOUR FATHOM

Dust your Fathom subwoofer’s cabinet using a clean, soft microfiber cloth or feather duster. Microfiber cloths are commonly available where automotive detailing supplies are sold.

Gloss-black models:

Light smudges can generally be wiped off with a clean microfiber cloth. For more stubborn smudges, polish and protect the finish using a high-quality automotive wax and a microfiber cloth, both available wherever automotive detailing supplies are sold. We recommend Meguiar’s® “NXT Tech Wax” and Meguiar’s® Microfiber Detailing cloths.

Never use a polish that contains harsh solvents or abrasives as these may permanently damage the finish. Never use furniture polish or any oil-based product on your Fathom. Never use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents on your Fathom. When in doubt, test the cleaning product on the underside of the cabinet and let it sit for several days before committing to its use on visible portions of the cabinet.
